2014 Non-Wild Playoff Discussion

[Avder]

Jesus, with the Habs out I just can't give a **** about the Finals this year. Two years in a row that the matchup has just been too unappealing to me to even bother watching. It's like, the biggest of big market teams vs. one of the last two champions (who were also from the #2 and #3 biggest markets). Like...who can honestly cheer for either of these teams? Great for NBC's ratings but terrible for the fans outside those markets.

Ugh. Is it October yet?

If the Hawks make it I'm cheering like hell for the Rags.

If the Kings make it I'm still cheering for the Rags but won't really care that much. I hope Gaborik doesn't get a ring, but better him getting one than Toews, Kane, Hossa, and the other sacks of crap on that Hawks team getting one more.

Why not?

 

[Avder]

Why not?

Because I don't like Gaborik.

 

[Lapa]

I really don't have a horse in this race.

After the Wild got eliminated, I cheered for the Pens, then the Bruins. I don't really care one way or another now. If I had to pick one, I'd pick Rangers.

 

[Avder]

Yeah the Rangers are the last team remaining that has a low ******* quotient. Can't think of anyone I really hate on that team whereas I hate both Brown and Gaborik on the Kings and I hate the entire Hawks team.

 

[Lapa]

I really don't like Brown. I have nothing against the Hawks though.

 

[AJ Thelen]

I have no team but it would be fun if Zuccarello became the first norwegian with a ring.

No one from Norway has ever won a cup?

 

[Swervin81]

Why do you hate Gaborik so much?

 

[Engebretson]

Good to see the Rangers advance last night. I'm officially on the Rags' bandwagon regardless of who they face. I kind of hope it's against the Kings so when the Rangers win the Cup, I can watch Dustin Brown's delicious tears fall.

 

[00xtremeninja]

Would love to see Henrik get a cup win, Zuccs as well. The media will gobble up the St. Louis and Dominic Moore stories if they win a cup too.

Want the Kings to win only to get knocked in the cup round. So long as Chicago isn't anywhere near it. Am not going to be too mad if the Kings win it though.

Name three Norwegian hockey players not named Zuccarello off the top of your head.

Go ahead.

 

[BigT2002]

I want Rangers to win it all because we all know St. Paul's finest will wear the "C" for that team next year.

We have a new manliest name champion.

 

[Lapa]

We have a new manliest name champion.

I think it means Vikingtown. SphinX, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[Puhis]

We have a new manliest name champion.

It gets better.

His first name is Tore.

 

[DuaneHewitt]

Tore vikingstad is the greatest name ever. I was on the norway bandwagon before zucc came to the rangers simply because of that.

That. Is. Amazing.

 

[Swervin81]

Vikingstad will likely be a choker. It's right in his name

HEY! You don't get to say that, ya non-Minnesotan

But yeah, Tore Vikingstad could eat chips in my bed any day. Thanks to TP for the wordsmithery.

 

[W75]

Tore Vikingstad >>>>> Shampoo Knutsen in the Manliest Norwegian Name competition.

 

[Avder]

Why do you hate Gaborik so much?

It stems from him holding out.

 

[Northland Wild Man]

I actually saw Gaborik throw a hit
